(AFP) - Andrew Flintoff struck twice as South Africa stumbled in their pursuit of a series-deciding win on the fourth day of the third Test against England at Edgbaston on Saturday.
Needing 281 to win, South Africa were 111 for four at tea.
Flintoff, who first swung the momentum towards England with a fiery spell on the second evening, made vital breakthroughs with full deliveries which the batsmen appeared not to see.
He trapped Neil McKenzie leg before for 22 after McKenzie and South African captain Graeme Smith put on 65 for the first wicket.
McKenzie appeared to lose the ball completely and was ducking when the ball hit him on the boot.
Jacques Kallis also ducked against a ball which struck him on the full on his right thigh in line with the stumps.
